Hong Kong's Low-Turnout Election: A Test for Legitimacy

Hong Kongs upcoming legislative election, scheduled for this Sunday, is expected to have low voter turnout due to the patriots only vote and the recent devastating fire that claimed one hundred and fifty-nine lives. Campaign activities have been subdued, with many residents seemingly disinterested, and the election is seen as a test for the governments legitimacy amid public anger and trauma. The national security office is urging residents to vote, but the sensitive political climate is evident with recent arrests for inciting non-voting. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story.
